Abstract
Because of varied clinical manifestations, long duration and recurrence, and lack of diagnostic criteria, the treatment of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is very complicated. The treatment should be aimed at its diverse pathogenesis and be multimodal, including controlling active inflammation, regulating immune function, use of biological agents, and stem cell transplantation. Some cases even require surgical treatment.
